UN - we have the money and know-how to stop global warming.
In the UK The Guardian has obtained a copy of a critical new UN report spelling out its strategy to reverse climate change. The UN is saying we have the money and know-how to stop global warming.
Global climate change experts will this week lay out a detailed plan to save the planet from the catastrophic effects of rising temperatures. Climate change could be stopped in its tracks using existing technology, but only if politicians do more to force businesses and individuals to take action.
The UN study will conclude that mankind has the knowhow to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 26bn tonnes by 2030 - more than enough to limit the expected temperature rise across the planet to 2-3C.
The article spells out a mix of solutions, covering energy supply, transport, buildings, agriculture and forestry, industry and waste. — DS
